Yes that is SORUCK weekend - see http://www.whiteblaze.net/soruck/ for details
I just wanted to bump this thread back into discussion.
The SORUCK is Jan 18,19, and 20. NCPatrick suggested Jan 24-27. I have to work that weekend but I could probably switch with somebody if that's the dates we pick, so no real problem there. If there are dates that would be better for others please feel free to suggest them.
We also need to decide on location. It has been noted that the Smokies may be out because of the limit on the number of people at a camp site. Maybe the poll needs to be reset or something and the Smokies eliminated as a choice and then we can re-vote.

i could change the votes to zero but the names would probably stay & i don't know if it would allow people to vote again for the same place they had already voted for if that's what they wanted.
if every body agrees, we could just start another poll, unless jeff can reset this poll.
I too will something make and joy in it's making
i believe headchange & others are right in that we could run into complications trying to use the smokies for the winter hangout group.
as far as i can gather, there's no way to reset this poll so that everyone can reenter their vote.
the next best thing would be to start another poll. i don't know if we can do that on this thread or not. i'll check w/ jeff.
but that's a decision for you guys (& gals) to make<g>.

Besides the BSF is pretty close to the Smokies; same general area. Check with Jeff on resetting the poll. If it's not feasible I will start another poll and include dates to vote on as well.
Any other suggestions for dates of the hang out?

I saw a way to edit the poll but I didn't see how to erase everyone's existing votes...not sure if it'll let you vote again or not. Best bet is probably to start another poll and link to it from this thread.

I edited the first post to reflect the location and dates of the Winter hang out. Includes dates and directions to the parking, trail, and shelter.
There is also a list of items for the Saturday hot dog dinner. If you want to volunteer to bring something I will note it on the list.
